In Depth

Christopher M. Murphy was mentioned in the September 25 issue of the AmLaw Litigation Daily in an article regarding a nationwide class action brought by Rebecca Siegel and Michael Siegel against major gas producers in the Northern District of Illinois. The Siegels made claims of fraud and unjust enrichment, alleging that the gas companies kept prices high by limiting supply, restricting purchases and falsely advertising that gas supplies were scarce. The Honorable Amy J. St. Eve denied the motion for class certification on the grounds that the claims of fraud and unjust enrichment would differ from state to state, essentially violating the standard for class certification. Mr. Murphy represented Exxon Mobil Corporation in the case.
